Kobe Bryant struggled on Wednesday night, in the Lakers' 110-87 loss to the Grizzlies, and worse yet, he needed nearly 45 minutes of postgame treatment for plantar fasciitis in his left foot.

Bryant told the Los Angeles Times that he's been struggling with the painful condition, which is caused by connective tissue in the arch becoming inflamed.

"It's one of those things you have to jump on early so it doesn't linger," Bryant said. "My body heals fast."
